We loved the cool records and record players in each room. We loved our balcony overlooking the pool areas and water. To wake up and see the sunrise over all the sail boats was perfection! The fire pit was nice to sit around to on our fist night! And the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed!

A must-stay in Edgartown!

The Faraway is absolutely delightful. The rooms are beautifully decorated and from the second you walk in, the signature scent is relaxing and comforting. The pool and fire pit are beautiful and the perfect place to spend a few hours. We loved the location—just a few steps from shopping, dining, and the water. A must-stay in Edgartown!

Modern and nice. BUT they blow a very heavy scent throughout hotel and grounds that is over powering. Had to use towel at room for jam to keep smell out. Over powering. Throat and sinuses were bothered. If you have asthma or scent bother your throat don’t stay here. You may need your inhaler. It’s too bad but just could not sit around lobby.
